The design firm of Purkiss-Rose-RSI of Fullerton, CA designed the Skate Park along with area skaters during 3 group design sessions. Among its unique features are elements for street skaters and vertical skaters, with rails, spines and bowls. The Phase II design of the Skate Park includes a pool featuring actual pool coping and tile. When funded, Walnut Creek will have the only skate park of its kind in Northern California.
